Temples – The Howl lyrics
[Verse 1]
You talk like a lamb to the alter
And you walk like a beast high on all fours
Show them all how, rising up now
Like the first time you wake to the call
Though you might use your claws to control us
And the storm's in the eye of our beholders
How the wind cheats, such a pity
It's the last time that you'll hear the call

[Chorus]
Raise you head up
Stamp your feet
Hang the world down
By a thread
Rising up to
Higher ground
Steal your thunder
Feel the howl
Raise you head up
Stamp your feet
Hang the world down
By a thread
Rising up to
Higher ground
Steal your thunder
Feel the howl

[Verse 2]
Calling all in the world as they told us
With the weight of their woes on your shoulders
Have you ever felt so clever...
Like the first time you wake to the call?
Can you prey on the weak when you rage through?
Are you fierce when they fail to obey you?
Did someone come steal your thunder?
It's the last time that you'll hear the call

[Pre-Chorus]
Know by now
You know she's out on the prowl
Shame somehow
You've got to beg to be proud

[Chorus]
Raise your head up
Stamp your feet
Hang the world down
By a thread
Rising up to
Higher ground
Steal your thunder
Feel the howl
Raise your head up
Stamp your feet
Hang the world down
By a thread
Rising up to
Higher ground
Steal your thunder
Feel the howl

[Bridge]
Know by now
You know she's out on the prowl
Same old prey
You can tell by the howl
Stepping out
You know she's out on the prowl
Shame somehow
You've got to beg to be proud

[Chorus]
Raise your head up
Stamp your feet
Hang the world down
By a thread
Rising up to
Higher ground
Steal your thunder
Feel the howl
Raise your head up
Stamp your feet
Hang the world down
By a thread
Rising up to
Higher ground
Steal your thunder
Feel the howl
